Remix Andromeda3 at UOT Kitchen

http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/

UOT Kitchen provides the ability to make your own custom release of Andromeda3.

Introduction:

In the beginning there was the work. In that work is Andromeda, and in Andromeda is the work. We've released Andromeda 1.0/2.0, 1.1/2.1, and 1.2/2.2. This is Andromeda3. Andromeda3 is the result of countless hours of development. Andromeda3 is the single Clockwork Mod flash-able ROM you should keep at all times in your phone's downloads folder. It just works.

This ROM contains the fastest kernel, the best combination of software, and it delivers outstanding battery life. Because of this, we feel it sets the standard which all ROMs should strive to attain.

For maximum battery life, disable “Auto adjustment of brightness” and “Auto rotation” under settings for the battery experience you've always wanted. These are classy and useful, but thanks to Samsung's driver, they can eat up to 25% of your processor at idle under certain conditions.

Latest Nightly builds:

http://files.teamkomin.com/Andromeda/nightly/ and http://files.teamkomin.com/Andromeda/nightlies/

Originally, our Nighties were hosted on Google code. We ran out of space on the SVN and re-hosted on our Team Komin server. The SVN revision were reset to 0 as a result of clearing out all data. No data loss occurred, only nightly builds were affected. Anyway, the latest nightly build is always symlinked here: http://files.teamkomin.com/Andromeda/AndromedaNightly.zip

Thanks

Special thanks to the following (in no specific order):

Modem testing and verification - perosredo

Development, Packaging, Testing, and Verification - Team Komin

An extra special thanks to our unsung hero mxracer101. The kernel is the most important and unnoticed part of any ROM. The kernel is the pillar which the android layer stands upon. mxracer101 has developed the i9010 kernel for our phones which provides indisputable performance gains over stock, all previous build and provides compatibility with nearly everything... Like running Ubuntu 10.10. This is all done by building specific parts of the kernel as modules which are loaded when required rather then delete them or bog down the kernel by building them into it.

Thanks to nbs11 for this promo video based on 2.0
